Northwest Pulmonology offers comprehensive treatment and diagnostic services for pulmonary diseases. As part of the award-winning family of services we work closely with Northwest Imaging and Sleep Center using state-of-the-art equipment including CT, bronchoscopy and polysomnography (sleep studies). We also have strategic partnerships for other important services such as ENT, cardiology, thoracic surgery and oncology.
Our respiratory therapists evaluate, treat and educate our patients, families and the community about breathing and lung-related conditions.
